In the day's deadliest attack, 10 died after three car bombs detonated nearly simultaneously at a popular vegetable market in southern Baghdad's Dora district. The blast wounded 30 people, according to an Interior Ministry official.

Lettuce and bloodstained clothes were visible on the ground among the debris, according to The Associated Press. The blast's impact caused a metal roof to blow off from a loading area, while leaving a van burned out, with lettuce and onions atop the vehicle, the AP said.

The market is near Dora's Abu Dishir area, according to the AP. Most of the shop owners and workers were Shiites from Abu Dishir, but there are some Sunni vendors, the AP reported.

"I will think twice before transporting goods to this market again," a driver who identified himself as Hussein told the AP.

Another car bomb targeting an Iraqi police patrol exploded in central Baghdad, killing four people and wounding 10 others, the ministry said. The casualties included both police and civilians. The blast burned cars and shattered the storefrong windows, according to the AP.

In the Camp Sara neighborhood in southeastern Baghdad, a bomb blast in a parked car killed three civilians and wounded seven others, the official said.

Later Thursday, a car bomb parked near a police station in the western Al-Mashtal neighborhood exploded, killing at least one person and wounding six, an Interior Ministry source said. All were civilians.
